Chapter 850: Chapter 850: Remarriage 12

After packing up her things, He Zhilan followed the military transport and left the unit, leaving He Teng no choice but to move in with Kang Xing.

"Deputy Regimental Commander, has your sister-in-law ditched you?" Kang Xing couldn’t stop laughing upon seeing He Teng, "Deputy Regimental Commander still has to come back and stay with me! Or do you want to sleep on Niu Rang’s bed? I’m happy to share mine with you too!"

"I’ll sleep in Niu Rang’s bed." Without a second thought, He Teng strode towards Niu Rang’s bed, his mind also calculating how several months had passed since Niu Rang went on a mission, and he hadn’t returned yet.

Although He Teng is Niu Rang’s deputy, he truly had no clue about the nature of Niu Rang’s mission this time, as it was a high-level confidential assignment. Only Niu Rang himself and those who issued the orders knew the details.

He Zhilan had no idea how He Teng was faring alone in the military, but she herself was having a particularly delightful time in the capital, with her wedding day approaching and her surroundings growing increasingly lively.

In the days leading up to the wedding, her aunt’s family from her hometown and He Teng’s father arrived early in the capital. With Lin’s mother overseeing the wedding banquet preparations, He Zhilan took her relatives out to enjoy the city for two days. She was having such a good time that she almost forgot she was the bride-to-be until He Teng abruptly showed up before her.

He Teng arrived at the hotel where He Zhilan had arranged for her relatives to stay, and just as they were at the hotel entrance, He Dongxue immediately shouted upon seeing him.

Responding with a sound of acknowledgment, He Teng greeted his relatives and then set his gaze on He Zhilan, his eyes conveying a message: I’ll deal with you later.

"The wedding is the day after tomorrow, right? How come you came a day early?" He Father asked with a smile.

"I came right after training was over today." He Teng could only say he was lucky to have a good superior, who, aware that the reunion wedding might be hectic for He Zhilan alone, had sent He Teng off to help her out.

"We’ve been out all day, dad and aunt are tired. Let’s rest first, we can talk tomorrow." It was already past 10 PM, so He Zhilan suggested everyone go back to their rooms, particularly Liang Jing’s grandparents who, despite their old age and excitement during the outing, were the ones most susceptible to fatigue afterward.

Meanwhile, Liang Jing, who took leave from school to have fun in the capital, was buzzing with excitement. Seeing He Teng only added to her joy, and had He Hongmei not pulled her away, she would have likely rushed straight to He Teng.

He Zhilan was supposed to lodge with He Dongxue these few days, but with He Teng’s arrival - and since He Dongxue had other female colleagues staying with her near the hospital - He Zhilan naturally couldn’t drag He Teng along. Instead, after fetching her pajamas with He Teng’s company, they returned to the hotel and rented a room to stay together.

"Brother, don’t tell me you’re planning to rush back tomorrow morning after coming here tonight?" As soon as they entered, He Zhilan turned and questioned He Teng, who had been quiet with a stern face.

"No, I’ll go back after the wedding banquet is over. Kang Xing and the political commissar, along with anyone else who can make it, will come over the day after tomorrow to attend the midday wedding banquet," He Teng replied, then looked at He Zhilan, asking, "Why haven’t you called these past few days?"

"Huh?" He Zhilan was taken aback by He Teng’s sudden question and only then understood why he gave her that scolding look as soon as he arrived. He was blaming her for not calling?
